About

Much of our desire to work together is inspired by the writings of Tim Keller around City Movements. He says

"Every city in the world needs Jesus Christ. But our cities do not merely need a few more churches and ministries here and there; they need gospel city movements that lead to citywide tipping points. So urban ministers enthusiastically and passionately give their lives to see these goals, even though they may not see their consummation in their own lifetimes."

Our conviction is that to reach Dublin for Christ will be something that no one church, denomination or network could fulfil on their own, so we need to work together, for the good of the city we live, work and minister in.

Our prayer is that we might see something of what Keller calls a ‘gospel ecosystem’ in the city of Dublin, represented by this diagram.
